An official Scone Horse Festival Event
Hunter Thoroughbred Breeders Association Stud Tours & Lunch - Tour 1
The origins of the Hunter Valley’s stud industry date back over 200 years, and is the second largest concentration of thoroughbred studs in the world – alongside Kentucky in the USA. Every stud tour is a unique experience, each stud is a working business, some are owned and operated by a family over generations, others are private businesses or companies with Australian and /or international interests. Each farm has its own story to tell, from its history and heritage, to farm buildings, architecturally designed stallion barns and landscaping, through to the stud’s role in Australia’s national and international breeding and racing scene.
For this tour, you don’t need to know anything about horses – this unique day out will take you on an exclusive discovery of the essence of Australia’s Horse Capital Scone.
The tour begins at 9am from Scone Warbirds / Visitor Information Centre at Scone Airport, returning to Scone Warbirds / Visitor Information Centre at approximately 3pm.
The tour includes visits to major horse studs around Segenhoe, close to Scone (including Arrowfield and Darley), morning tea and a private lunch, as well as bus transportation for the tours.
Tickets $120 (Plus Eventbrite Ticket Fee)
